which retired at 4:O7 P. M. Goldenson,
who was present in the courtroom. was
taken to his prison cell, located in the
same building where the court
was held, to remain there until the
jury were ready to report. The court.
room was full of spectators who waited
patiently for the verdicts. About 4:45
the jury announced they were ready to
report and the prisoner was sent for.
His face expressed great anxiety as to
the result. He, however, attempted to
hide his fears by vain endeavor to
smile. Ten minutes later the jury fled
into the court and took their seats.
"Have you arrived at verdict, gentl.
men of the jury?" inquired the Judge.
The foreman stepped forward, said that
they had, and then read: "The People

the above entitled case find the defend

Upon hearing the verdict, number of
persons attempted noisy demonstra.
ton. Several clappsd their hands. and
others, more demonstrative, stamped
their feet. This was soon stopped by
the Judge. The prisoner. upon hearing
the verdict, affected pleasant look and
sought encouragement by looking at his
brother. In this, however, he was dis

equally as pale as his own. Mrs. Col.

tendance during the trial, was not pres

Judge Murphy announced that he
would pass sentences next Saturday. and

A Long Standing Case
Decided.
TWO FARO GAMBLERS KILLED.
A Carriage Building Firm Disap-
pears With all its Assets,
Leaving Large Liabilities.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
WASHINGTON, March 25.7A decision
was rendered to-day by the Supreme
Court in the long standing case of the
United States against Jno. Paul Jones,
administrator of George McDougall. on
an appeal from the Court of Claims.
This suit had its origin on contract en-
tered in April s, 1852, between Fl. NJ
Wozencraft, United States Indian Agent
in California. and Geo. McDougall, to
supply certain Indians with $50, 1000
lbs. of beef. The beef was duly
furnished, and Indian Agent Wo.
zencraft gave contractor McDougall
drafts on the Secretary of the Interior,
amounting in the aggregate to $8l. 200.
The Interior Department regarded the
contract as unauthorized and illegal and
refused to honor the drafts December l,
1854. The Secretary referred the case
to the Court of Claims under the provis.
ions of Sec. 1868 of the Revised Statutes,
and the court gave judgment in favor of
the contractor for $Sl, 250, disallowing
the sum of $l9,5OO, claimed In ad-
dition to the judgment under the
terms of the contract. From this
judgment both parties appealed,
he government insisting that the
claimant ought not to recover any
thing while the latter maintained that
he ought to have had Judgment for $40.
500 more. This court holds that the con.
tract of April 5, 1852, upon which this
claim is based, imposed no legal obliga-
tion upon the United States and that
the Judgment of the court of claims in
favor of McDougalls administrator was
erroneous. The judgment is therefore
reversed and the case remanded with the
directions to dismiss the petition. The
opinion is by Justice Harlan.

Flow er Festival society.

Some persons wishing to send flowers
to the festival are asking for particulars
as to the method of doing so. If anyone
is able to send them direct to the hall Of
exhibition, on any day of the festival, it
will save much trouble to the workers.
They should send early in the day. For
those unable to send, we will explain
that the plan of the managers has been
to divide the city into twenty districts.
Certain responsible parties have been
appointed to visit all of these districts to
solicit fowels. They will leave slips Of
paper at each house, stating the day on
which they will send to the houses to
collect flowers. and will request each
one willing to contribute, to give his or
her name, and also list of the varieties
of flowers promised.
This plan makes it possible for all to
contribute; go to gather with care and
hold in readiness for the messenger, il
the extent of the labor for the individ
nal. The society assumes the respon-
sibility of the collecting-for those who
cannot send.

LONDON. March 28.-The conferenes
OF Liberal Unionists will be held At Dsv-

Coercion bill. An exchange of views n
the lobbies on this bill, disclosed fhe

OF the measures, but that the mass Of IL

stringent. Lord Harrington and Mr..
Chamberlain will give their thorough
support to the whole of the proposals.

lists, will probably not exceed
ten votes, leaving the government still
with potent majority. The Parnellites
held an informal meeting aud united IN
denouncing what they termed the ahro--
cious character OF the Cocercion bin.
The measure, they said, concealed under
its provisions and powers the extinction
OF the liberties of the press. publio
meetings, free speech and all individual
rights. The Parnellites disregard the
threats OF Mr.. Smith to continue the
debate until the second reading of the
bill. They say that If the protrso-

that the abandonment of their principles,
